Seal Speaks About Marriage Split With Model Wife, Heidi Klum

Seal went public about his separation from wife of seven years Heidi Klum, shocking fans. The 49-year-old singer was very candid about their relationship and went online about why they broke up.

“When you publicize your marriage as much as our marriage was publicized, when you renew wedding vows, when you do all those things, what you are saying to people is … you’re giving people a picture of an ideal relationship that people aspire to,” Seal told the Fifi and Jules radio show in Australia.

Despite the public love and wedded bliss, Seal felt it would only be appropriate to share about the marital woes.

“When it goes south, you can’t all of a sudden take the philosophy of a monk and decide to go for a vow of silence. It doesn’t really work like that,” Seal said. “I respect my wife’s decision not to talk about that, but I felt that people at least deserved some kind of explanation why the picture of the ideal wasn’t what they thought it was.”

He said however, the press has been seeking him, not the other way around.
